We solve some of the most complex engineering problems that the world faces today – applying innovative thinking, pioneering technologies and outstanding projects to create the best outcome for clients and society, every single time. And this is all made possible by the people that make up Atkins and SNC-Lavalin.
From re-designing Heathrow to transforming offshore wind and nuclear, our community of diverse thought and different perspectives come together to make incredible things happen. It’s a community that shares the belief that everyone’s voice is valuable and should be treated equally. A community that understands that everyone deserves to feel like they belong – no exceptions.
Our staff networks fulfil various functions within Atkins, including providing opportunities for social interaction, peer support and personal development, as well as contributing to the development of policies and working practices. We don't dictate which networks should exist, but rather fully support any self-generated group that wishes to help promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Here are some of our existing staff networks:

Empower: The Women's Professional NetworkWe’re committed to leading change for gender equality and equity in our industry. It’s a reflection of who we are and it’s what we believe in – shaping a better future.
